Scientific Shutdown is a top-down arcade shooter in which you find yourself kidnapped by Dr Hans Trottelstein, the mad scientist, to test the deadliness of his latest batch of rock monsters. With help from up to three friends, how many simulated environments can YOU survive?
## About This Game
Scientific Shutdown is Define Logic’s first commercial release. It’s a twin-
stick arcade shooter with a low poly, cell shaded art style and has single
player and multiplayer modes.
Doctor Hans B. Trottlestein (scientist extraordinaire!) has been conducting
some entirely ethical and perfectly controlled tests* in order to observe the
prowess of his dazzling biological creations before he releases them into the
wild. And you just so happen to be the latest and luckiest test subj- I mean
volunteer to help him determine their effectiveness.
*Dr. Trottlestein and related parties reserve the right to deny all
wrongdoing in the event that testing is proved to be inhumane or be in
contravention of the World Peace Bill.
Alone – or with friends – you must fight your way through waves of these
creatures in environments specially created by the good doktor to test how
well they’d do in helping him take over the world! Survive it all, and the Dr.
has promised you your freedom…
## Fight for your Survival!
Endure wave-after-wave of Rock Monster Mayhem. Trottelstein’s terrors need
field-testing, and you’re just the right involuntary subject for the job.
Survive to the end to ensure your freedom.
## The Right Tools for the Job!
Access an Arsenal of Arms against your Antagonists! Choose from a variety of
weapons to fight your foes with, from Rifles to Railguns, and Shotguns to
Swords. There’s an offensive tool for every occasion.
## Repel the Hordes!
Not all monsters are created equal, some are even more monstrous. Besides your
bog-standard rock creature, be prepared to fight against faster, stronger, and
even ranged variants.
## Where will you fight?
Suffer Simulated Scenarios that’ll Strain your Sanity! Trottelstein has
prepared for you a selection of digital environments designed to test the
limits of his rocky horrors. Be warned, these simulations are far from stable;
prepare for ‘problems’.
